I just hope Winston is still available then. If Free says “No paycut” Jerry can cut him and at least split the cap hit over two years. The problem with that is you would still have to pay Free 3.5 mil this year and then say sign Winston for 3.5 mil and your back to paying 7 mil total and you still have to pay Free another 3.5 mil next year. Jerry should have addressed the need in the draft or gone out and gotten Clabo.

That GM should be taken to the woodshack and until he yells “uncle!” The GM is DALLAS worst employee…. he has got to go otherwise, another mediocre season in the NFC East is coming.

Free has considerable leverage here and I’m gonna bet his agent knows this. Jerry is paying for a bad contract here. He made this bed himself.

Sat, 11 May 2013 00:09:23 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2106833#comment-2525403Hey maybe we can wait to cut him when all the tackles worth taking are gone. Eric Winston is no upgrade he is equally as bad but just won’t cost 7-8 mill a year more along the lines of 3 or less. Point is if he signs and we cut free then what do we have a hole at rt with no plug cause Parnell is not the answer

Fri, 10 May 2013 23:58:14 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2106833#comment-2525382Is Jerry in charge or not? Put a number on the table and that’s it. If he agrees, keep him. I wouldn’t mind him staying for depth. If not cut him. I don’t understand why it has dragged out this long.

Fri, 10 May 2013 23:53:24 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2106833#comment-2525373He’d be lucky to get a 3 million 2 year contract with a few incentives, with any other franchise.

Anything above that and the Cowboys are throwing good money at bad…

Fri, 10 May 2013 23:46:28 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2106833#comment-2525367So Jerry is optimistic and Doug just said 2 days ago he didn’t know anything about the team asking him to take a pay cut. Hmm…

It’s not going to get any better with Free and as GM, Jerry failed to address this issue.
